A public look into my private life

Category: Uncategorized

If you told me five years ago–actually, if you told me five days ago—I’d be talking on the internet about sex, I would have said you were insane. Seriously. But for some reason women feel comfortable telling me about their struggles, and for some reason I have a deep desire to see women thriving in… Read More What No One Tells You About Sex After Kids

It’s nine-thirty, and I’ve been ready to go to bed since 8pm, but I don’t fall asleep until Elisha comes to bed, and it’s not really fair to drag your 28-year-old husband to bed with you because you’re a big baby, ya know? (Forgive that run-on sentence.) Today was one of those days where I… Read More Day (September 23rd): Just Keep Swimming

Hey! So, I’m back. The truth is, as much as I say I want to blog every day, I don’t. I should know I don’t do anything at all without a HUGE “why” and I won’t do something every. single. day. without accountability or someone counting on me. That’s why I have never, ever, missed… Read More Day . . .

It was Sunday today, and for some reason my nerves were short by about 4pm. Lucy started fussing, and I sighed at Elisha, “she hasn’t been that fussy today. Why do I feel like she’s been an emotional wreck?” He laughed. “It’s because it’s the weekend. I felt that way too. It seems like we… Read More Day Eleven: To Blur or Not to Blur

Ah. This whole “remember at 11pm to write” thing is lame sauce. I have to come up with a better system! There was so much good that happened today, but I’ll have to save it until tomorrow. I’ll leave you with these two thoughts. #1: My husband is HOT. Period. #2. I have an amazing… Read More Day Ten: Two Thoughts

I missed writing days six through eight this month. At any other point before this I would have quit. But not anymore. It’s cliche, but progress is so much more stinking important than perfection. It’s late, so I’m heading to bed. More tomorrow. 🙂 Love, The Kathryn Joy

Today was a huge step in what I’m calling my: “Next Level Life.” Catchy phrase, isn’t it. 😉 I made three delicious, healthy meals! Elisha loved them. I loved them. And they were good for us! (The last time Elisha and I both drooled over the same meal was probably a date to Red Robin.)… Read More Day Five: Total Win

Ah! I almost forgot to write today! It’s late and I need to be going to bed, but before I cozy up with Elisha and read our Louise L’amour books, I need to jot a couple words. I’m ready for a life change. A reboot. A remodel. My brain is whirling full of ideas, dreams… Read More Day Four: Ready for A Change

Two things happened today that were kindof downers, honestly. #1: I went clothing shopping for the first time since having Lucy. I know we should be happy with the bodies and shapes God gives us, and I know I’m a healthy weight, but the clothes didn’t fit like they used too, blast it. I used… Read More Day Three: Darn Media and Darn Clothes

I’m sitting here in bed at 7am on a Friday morning, training Leon to not get out of his closet-bed before 8am. Before 8am is my time. And besides, it’s spooky to wake up to a one year old drawing on your eyebrows with a pen at two in the morning. Very spooky. The closet… Read More Day Two: Take One
